For Sale: 1951 Chevrolet 3100 in Kentwood, Michigan

GR Auto Gallery is excited to introduce this beautifully finished 1951 Chevrolet 3100 Series custom pickup, a classic old-school street rod that combines timeless vintage character with thoughtful custom touches and easy-driving manners. Having remained with its previous owner for more than 25 years and in its current configuration since the early 2000s, this truck has been carefully enjoyed, regularly shown throughout the Greater Detroit area, and even earned a place in the 2011 Woodward Dream Cruise calendar as feature car for November.

The first thing that grabs your attention is the Zinc Yellow exterior accented by bold Poppy Red flames. The traditional custom styling is complemented by classic US Custom Chrome wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich T/A tires, shaved door handles, keyless entry with push-button access, and Kool Soft Blue headlights. A Street Glow neon kit adds another nostalgic touch for evening cruising.

Inside, the cabin is finished wall-to-wall in grained light saddle tan leatherette, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The comfortable front bench seat is paired with coordinating tan carpeting, power windows, a Dakota Digital dash, Lokar nostalgic shifter, and Sony stereo. The seating position is particularly comfortable, making this truck just as enjoyable on a longer cruise as it is at a local show.

Under the hood, the Chevrolet 350 CID V8 has been thoughtfully upgraded with a mild cam, double-roller timing chain, 600 CFM Edelbrock carburetor, and polished Edelbrock Performer II intake. The engine bay is detailed with polished and chrome accents, including a polished aluminum radiator, chrome open-air filter, polished valve covers, chrome alternator, polished water pump, custom billet battery tray and tie-down, power brake booster with dual master cylinder, and polished grille shroud.

Power is sent through a Turbo 350 automatic transmission equipped with a B&M mild shift kit and back to a 3.73 Posi rear end. Driving confidence is further enhanced by power front disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. On the road, this 3100 tracks straight, drives smoothly, and behaves well in a variety of driving and traffic conditions. It has the kind of approachable road manners that encourage you to enjoy it often rather than simply admire it in the garage.

The custom touches continue into the pickup bed, which is fully trimmed with matching carpeting and finished with a custom tonneau cover. From the bright exterior finish to the detailed engine compartment and carefully appointed interior, this Chevrolet delivers the unmistakable personality of a classic street rod while remaining comfortable and enjoyable to drive.
